The in this week’s show we talk with Jon Hauptman of PHLster Holsters about how he is able to bring innovative new holsters to the market that solve problems that the average concealed carry holder faces and how they can solve those problems with PHLSTER.
Jon is the owner of PHLster Holsters and has a background as an ASCE Certified Mechanic. He also has a degree in fine arts. Jon used his skills as a mechanic and an artist to modify holsters so that they more readily accomplished the task of safely, securely and comfortably concealing his handgun. Those holsters still didn’t quite fit the bill. As Jon explored the holsters that were more capable he found that his next obstacle was the wait time associated with the holsters that were seen as the “best.”
Jon decided that his skills gave him everything he needed to learn how to build a quality holster in less time than it would take to wait for someone else to do it for him.
That was the beginning of PHLster.

This episode’s guest is Claude Werner. Claude is known in the firearms training industry as the Tactical Professor and focuses on the firearms industry from a different angle than most other personal protection educators.
Like many of his peers, Claude has a background in the military, however, this background was focused on military intelligence. After his time in the Military Claude had an executive career in the private sector, first in commercial real estate followed by a director level position in a big 5 accounting firm.
What these three different life experiences have in common is decision making based on large amounts of data. Claude has successfully transitioned the same skills he used in military intelligence, commercial real estate and accounting to educating his clients in firearms and personal protection related topics.
In today’s episode of the Safety Solutions Academy Podcast I have an in depth conversation with Claude on a wide range of topics. We discuss:
The conversation I had with Claude was comprehensive and deep. Claude is one of the folks in the firearms industry that invests the time and energy into considering the fine details of his instruction and the consequences those details could lead to when applied to personal protection.
In today’s Patron only portion of the show, Claude shares with me how far he feels the Safety Solutions Academy Podcast has come and we talk about Col. Boyd’s Aerial Attack Study and how it impacts decision making in personal protection.

This show was recorded as part of our J-frame January series and unfortunately it has just sat in the can for a long time. As I have spooled up the Safety Solutions Academy Podcast again I decided that there was too much of Julie’s time and too many quality segments in this show to just let it sit. and so here it is.
Julie and I start off the show with some silly banter
During the core of the show we jump into these topics.
